Availability: Gerbera daisy flowers are usually available year-round.

Farm growing conditions, weather conditions, market demand, and other factors may result in the unavailability of the flowers.

As soon as you receive your shipment of gerbera daisies, please open the box and check on your flowers. It is to be expected that the gerberas will be tired after their journey. Their petals will be softer and more droopy at first, and stems will be weak. This will correct in less than 6 hours after being in water. You will see them take their first drink and start to perk up and become crisper and more 'alive'. All gerbera daisies are shipped fully open.

- Fill vases with plenty of fresh water and add flower food/floral preservative (not included). - Cut 1/2 inch off the ends of the stems on an angle and place immediately in water. The slanted cut will give the ends of the stems more surface area with which to absorb water. - Use tall containers or vases that will support the stems of your gerberas until the neck of the flower. By using tall containers, you will be able to minimize the natural bend to gerbera daisy stems, helping them stand tall and straight. It is important to place the gerberas the tall container when they are taking their initial drink. They can be placed in different vases after they are rehydrated for 6 hrs.- Keep your gerbera daisies in a cool, somewhat dark location and let them rest for 4-6 hours while they take their initial drink. After they have re-hydrated they will still need to be kept in a cool, dry location (between 35-70 degrees F), and away from direct sunlight.

Here are some tips for keeping your gerbera daisies fresh for as long as possible:- The cooler they are kept, the fresher they will stay!- Gerberas don't like extreme locations - don't freeze them in a cooler or refridgerator that is too cold, and don't let them burn up in a sunny location.- Keep checking that the water level in the vases doesn't get low. Sometimes gerbera flowers surprise you with their thirst!- Try to change the water in the vases and recut the ends of the stems every day. This will keep the water from becoming contaminated with bacteria that will block the flower's availability to absorb water and will also give the stem a fresh surface to take in water.
